How many miles do you do in your Mopar?
Following on from Jon and Nicola's mention of how many miles they've done in the Demon in 2 years, I wondered how much our Mopars get used.
I take mine to events throughout the year, have been to Le Mans in 2014 (800 miles) and the Lake District this year (600 miles in 3 days) plus I take it to work on odd days maybe 4 a year.
I've checked my MOT history (without having to get out of my chair!) https://www.check-mot.service.gov.uk/ and it looks like I did about 2000 in 2014, the year it got back on the road and went to Le Mans.
What is also apparent is that it took me 2 years to fix the speedo, as the mileage has only gone up by 400 since then!
I guess it about 1500 - 2000 a year, so within the 3000 miles for limited mileage insurance.
Anyone else ?

Go with "Brentacre" - they do not limit mileage in most cases! Worth a check.
You can use it even more, when you are not swanning about in your military vehicles!

Not many. A few trips to a mates (140 miles round trip) and a few runs out around town. 500ish. Must try harder!
